I guess if you won, that would be fitting punishment for my conjuring ghosts from the past to haunt the forum. I never expected Casper, but I also wasn't really prepared for a poltergeist.

Edit to add: For the rest of you who are wondering what the fuck I am talking about, it was I who inflicted Yogi on this version of the forum. I was bored one day, and thought that the forum could use some livening up. I remembered Yogimus from forums past, and knew that he'd had a blog. So, I sought him out. And I pointed him in this direction.

There, I have admitted it after all these months. It is all my fault! Image

It's not scifi, but, Below has some good hackle raising moments.

Event Horizon. It was worth watching but not very scary. Then again horror films very rarely scare me, although I do enjoy them a lot.

So, if Yogi and NPR got a room, would it be a king, queen or twin beds?

I watch it now and wonder why it was THAT scary. At that time, when it was pitch dark, all the lights in the house were off, and I was the only person within a 4 or 5 mile radius, it scared the ever luvin shit outta me...

If you have a knife fight under the covers of a bed you're sharing, is that a Finnish oven?
